>never set video bitrate beyond 2600 kbps / 2.6mbps for 1280x720 resolution, never set beyond 1200 kbps / 1.2mbps for 640x360There are no hard and fast rules for this. The bitrate you need depends on the content of the video. More movement or complex changes to the image means more data since encoders generally use 1 key frame every so often with the frame after only storing data telling it which pixels to adjust. One one extreme end you have a static image or even a black screen, and on the other extreme end you have a flock of birds flying over a ocean waves or even pure RGB noise. Generally you should experiment with bitrates until you have a feel for how much is required and then do some quick test renders to determine what is necessary. Dynamic bitrates are also generally better for rendering videos. Important to understand is that you can only preserve or reduce detail, you can't improve quality the whole "zoom in, enhance" thing is not real. Depending on the limits of what you're working with it can be better to give a little extra room to avoid degrading the data.
>even audiophiles who are all liars could never tell from a blind testThat depends a lot on the audio codec, but for internet meme purposes obviously you don't need some uncompressed FLAC or whatever
>>572967It is just from some Glen Beck lookalikes video who inteviewed him:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz8KR6pDC_o It was pretty boring over-all but this clip was amusing.

>>572974>shotcut, kdenlive, olive..I tried to do it in shotcut at first, (it is my go to tool for video stuff) and all it did was leave it in place and the video dimensions in place abd bkacked out everything but what i cropped. It didn't do:
>>572971>>572966 >>572965Thank you to both of you! I have a lot to learn, but this stuff really helps. I appreciate it. <3 :)
I send it to a friend and she said it would not post on twitter, what is the reason for this? Not a big issue but something I would like to understand.
Is there generally any good on courses on youtube to have a better understanding too of these things raver than just learning them by rote?
>>572975>would not post on twitterCould be any number of things the way the site is right now. Could also be how you sent it to them. Files often get messed with in transit on messaging platforms.
>Is there generally any good on courses on youtube to have a better understanding too of these things raver than just learning them by rote?If you just look up intro courses to videography production you can find a lot of stuff.
>>572975>I tried to do it in shotcut at first, (it is my go to tool for video stuff) and all it did was leave it in place and the video dimensions in place abd bkacked out everything but what i croppedyou probably need to set the project dimensions to what you want the final result to be. NLEs typically aren't engineered to just process a single clip but to string multiple clips together in a project with fixed dimensions. at least that's how editors based on melt work (

to do something like
>>572971 I'd probably use ffmpeg with -vf crop
>>572961install gentoo
start with kdenlive for a super simple yet powerful, free option, consider Da Vinci Resolve if you need more POWER
